Has anyone published a review of the actual-in-practice effects of ...Colorado I think it was? doing the same thing a little while ago?

I don't have a review to reference, but I've heard that certain companies stopped hiring in Colorado, they even explicitly excluded Coloradoan in their job listings. Here is a website tracking companies that do it: https://www.coloradoexcluded.com/

It'll be a lot harder to exclude California, which represents 10% of the population, and even more of the population of professionals who can work remotely.

And NYC starts Nov 1. And WA state starts Jan 1. And NY state is just waiting on governor’s signature, which after 270 days will start.

So CO/NYC/WA/CA will be ~62M Americans, and if NY gets added, ~74M Americans.

I saw the Colorado excluded in job postings in the immediate aftermath.

I'm starting to see more and more companies listings a Colorado salary range in recent listings.
